As far as I know, Cisco terminal servers support only asynch, ASCII terminals. They use tn3270, but what you get is a 3270 emulator designed for use with ASCII terminals. I don't know of any Cisco product that will connect to real 3270's. We're using tn3270 for access to our IBM systems. People seem to like it. It is based on the Berkeley implementation, complete with termcap. You have to put the termcap entries into the Cisco configuration file.
